Question:
Does heavy drinking of beer affect wet AMD?
Answer:
Heavy alcohol consumption has been found to be associated with early dry macular degeneration but there is no study to date that ties it to late or wet AMD. Heavy drinking is associated with poor nutrition — and diets low in green leafy vegetables, fruits, nuts and fish have been associated with an increased risk of late AMD.
